An escape to the Big Island

By Assunta Ng Northwest Asian Weekly Most people visit Hawaii’s Big Island to see its volcano. But I wasn’t interested in trekking over lava and mud, as this was my third visit to the Island. What took me there recently was my desire to recuperate after a stressful month in February. All I wanted was […]

Feast on this — Filling up buffet-style

September 18, 2015 By Assunta Ng Leave a Comment

By Assunta Ng Northwest Asian Weekly The worst comment Chinese immigrants say about a restaurant is, not “bad food,” “ugly décor,” or “lousy service.” Simply, it is: “The customer is still hungry after eating at the restaurant.” With our relatives from Hong Kong (HK) visiting us recently, I was mindful in picking the right restaurant […]
